Highly Recommended 12 Dinner Restaurants Near Rockport, Texas

Mikalei OBanion First time trying this and it was SLAP! We’ll definitely be back. Maddie helped us with the menu and we loved what we got! Everything was hot fresh and the restaurant was very clean and decorated super cute too!

Rodney Crawford The portion size is very generous. We accidentally ordered too much food because we were not expecting such large portions for the more than reasonable price. But thats not a bad thing, the food is really good and now we have some great leftovers. Great food, good prices, and friendly service. I highly recommend.

Analisa Trujillo My husband and I Went on a Friday night around 8, so we weren’t expecting anything great or even fresh food. Our waitress was very sweet (didn’t get her name) but she recommended the Shiner holiday beer which was delicious! I ordered Pagona fish and chips and chose a side salad as a side. I mean it when I say this, it was the BEST fish and chips I’ve ever eaten and I’ve been to San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Warf -My husband got mahi mahi fish tacos and those were delicious as well. We sat outside on the dock, it was mostly empty. It was such a relaxing atmosphere. It’s our first time here in Rockport and I wish I could go back everyday to enjoy this food again.

K H My fiancé and I came to Charlotte Plummer’s for a birthday and much needed date night after a day at the beach, and it was the perfect way to end the day. The food was fresh, flavorful, and really well-priced—great quality without breaking the bank. We loved the fish tacos, soft shell crab po’boy, crispy fries, and all the sauces. The cheesecake was delicious, and the bread pudding (which they generously gave us an extra to take home) was incredible. We are so grateful for a such a wonderful experience! The staff was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was laid-back and inviting. Definitely our new favorite spot!

Paul Nolan This is a fun, casual place, ment for supping with friends, family and delighting in crustatious seafood and sausage. Four of us supped and slurped on two orders of the Cajun Combo (see photos of the menu) which was on happy hour special 50% off. We had sides of Red Beans & Rice (Cajun style which is spicy hot, you have been informed). The boiled crab, shrimp, sausage, corn on the cob were all tasty with condiments of spicy hot honey mustard, coctail sauce, horseradish sauce, melted butter, soft butter, and whole wheat loaves were delectable. We lacked room for the one dessert of key lime pie. There is inside and outside covered patio seating for sea breeze al fresco dining. The staff was gracious, affable and helpful. Definitely a place for friends, family, fun fabulous boiled seafood.

Cathy Villalobos I’m from San Antonio, so I have high standards when it comes to Mexican food, and I honestly did not expect to find such an amazing Mexican restaurant here. The beef fajitas were incredibly tender and full of flavor, the rice and charro beans were absolutely on point, and the queso was so good we couldn’t stop eating it. On top of the great food, the owner was incredibly kind, very friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend!!

Elizha Behnke First time to eat here and we had a great experience! Since the food is pretty cheap and we expected it to be small portions…but nope! When our food came, it blew my mind how big the meal was. For the taste, i like it! Food is not salty and authentic! Will definitely comeback! I ordered the TEXAS PLATE!

Scott Burkhart We stopped in for pizza after a recommendation from a guy carrying a pizza box in the parking lot. I got a small The Works. Great pizza, with fresh ingredients. I keep wanting to go back, but my wife says we need to check out other dinning establishments in the area first. She loved her pizza too.

Sailor Cowboy (Thumper) I dont get to eat here as often as I would like to. I just love the place. This is not a fast food restaurant and they make no bones about it. The staff has always been respectful and pleasant to talk with. If you speak Spanish your visit will be that much more fun for you.

Alex This + Hu-Dat is a must-try place in Rockport. We go every time were in the area. Everything weve tried has been stellar, from the pho, to the noodle dishes, to the gator, and calamari. Everything has been so good. The atmosphere is always lovely, the staff are always friendly, and the food comes out hot and fast. The prices are what you should expect for the quality and quantity of the food. The portions are large enough to feed 2 people most times. The calamari, fried gator, and the fried oysters are my favorites that I get every time. The pho is homemade and authentic, and has an incredible depth of flavor. The Happy Family is flavorful, chock full of meats and veggies. You cant go wrong here.

Lauri B 8/23/2025: Great service, fun space, and good drink prices. We arrived late, so we were only able to stay for one drink, but Skylar was very friendly and didnt bat an eye about us arriving right before closing. I walked around to view the photos around the building and see all the fun memorabilia. I will go back early next time to try their food.

Abigail B Good experience only down size was I paid for dinner price and there were not any crab legs. The hibachi was better than the rest of the food.
